However, I need to post the following, just because it is one of those things that is 100 percent totally HAIRDOGian:
It's not the Oedipus complex. That is a term coined by Freud to describe a male's attachment to his mother. This is the Electra Complex, or, as Freud preferred it, the "feminine Oedipus attitude."
This (correcting someone) is what my dear friend referred to when he said, "You're right . . . but you're still an azzhole."
I have tried to curb this behavior, but realized that, damn it...it is so genuinely me, that you can go ahead and hate the sin but love the sinner. It's a package deal. I actually told my wife this when I corrected something she said over vacation. So, I'm not all sweet and un-annoying. I'm an azzhole, at times. (as if YOU didn't know.)
